A new report from transportation research group TRIP[3] detailed how poor conditions on roads and bridges are costing Pennsylvania drivers a total of $9.4 billion annually—approximately $1,800 per person.

For the report, TRIP determined total financial cost of poor roads and bridges through a combination of vehicle operating costs, congestion-related delays and traffic crashes. The report focused on the state’s five major metro areas: Harrisburg-York-Lancaster, Lehigh Valley-Reading, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Drivers in the Harrisburg-York-Lancaster region paid the most due to poor road conditions at approximately $1.65 million. According to the analysis, 41% of major urban roads in that region were classified in mediocre or poor condition. Philadelphia[4] had the highest percentage of roads in mediocre or poor condition at 71%. The total percentage of mediocre or poor major roads statewide is 37%.

Safety concerns played a role as well, as there were 1,286 traffic fatalities[5] reported in Pennsylvania in 2011.

In total, drivers across the state spent up to 48 hours stuck in traffic over the course of the year.
